BLUETOOTHŠAUDIO
Your vehicle is equipped with BluetoothŠAudio.
If you have a compatible BluetoothŠdevice with
streaming audio (A2DP profile) , you can set up a
wireless connection between your Bluetooth
Š
device and the in-vehicle audio system. This
connection allows you to listen to the audio from
the Bluetooth
Šdevice using your vehicle speak-
ers. It also may allow basic control of the device
for playing and skipping audio files using the
AVRCP Bluetooth
Šprofile. Not all BluetoothŠ
devices have the same level of controls for
AVRCP. Please consult the manual for your
Bluetooth
Šdevice for more details.
Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the BluetoothŠfunc-
tions share the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) .
Using the Bluetooth
Šand the wireless LAN
functions at the same time may slow down or
disconnect the communication and cause un-
desired noise. It is recommended that you turn
off the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) when using the
Bluetooth
Šfunctions.
Connecting BluetoothŠaudio device
A BluetoothŠaudio device must be connected to
the vehicle before operation.
